What you give becomes an investment that will return to you multiplied at some point in the future.--Jim Rohn (Jim Rohn's Weekly E-zine - June 24, 2003)
Dear readers and fellow bloggers,
I'm writing to you in behalf of a friend and a sister in Christ, Fe Boligol, whom I knew since she was in kindergarten and she's one of my Sunday School students. As one of the cell leaders, she was endorsed to attend the Leadership Development Institute (LDI). LDI is a short-term training core of the Lakas-Angkan Ministries, Inc.,which provides and equips its members the basic ministry and leadership skills. This leadership training will be held on April 24-May 25, 2011. Inasmuch as she wanted to join , she's constrained financially. The registration fee of Php 9,500 is undeniably fairly high for a nursing student like her who also has other needs as she'll graduate from her course this coming April.
This is her personal letter for us:
Being a college student, it’s been a roller coaster ride in the financial aspect of this training. We were given almost a year to prepare, but we just couldn’t reach the ideal amount of money to raise. We’ve tried fund-raisers—raffle draws, catering services, piggy banks, and I’ve even tried selling second-hand books—but I guess one thing to learn in this challenge is to acknowledge that we cannot do it alone. That God will eventually be using people to aid us financially. That we will need to humble ourselves in order to reach what we fervently desire.
And so here I am, requesting your monetary assistance. And more importantly, soliciting your prayers. Though I cannot pay you back with anything but prayers and declarations of blessings, I know my God will never let any good action pass His vision. He is a God who rewards. Thank you in advance. God bless!
Sincerely yours,
Fe Boligol
Here's here Statement of Purpose to answer some of our questions on "Why she need to attend this training?"
The Lord Almighty will send me by all means to the Leadership Development Institute because:
· He wants to display His power and grace through my life. He wants me to really get trained there despite the difficulties that the future poses (finances, time, etc.)
· I am willing to be trained. I want to explore further on God’s great purpose for my existence, knowing that He will never send a thirsty soul to a dry well. I want to be a living testimony of His greatness, inspiring people and being an agent of positive change. I also want to be equipped to lead Christian leaders, not just followers.
· This training is one-of-a-kind… and sadly, the last of its kind. I saw the transformation in its previous participants. So it’s kind of a last-trip bus one shouldn’t miss.
Can we be the people she mentioned that God will use to help/aid her financially?

Whatever you give will be appreciated and I sincerely thank you for giving your precious time in going through this write up.

and we got a 2-year old bubbly son. We started a family in this promising foreign land in year 2007 and Thailand became our second home since then. By the way, many asked me if my hubby's a Thai. Nope, he's not. He's a pure-bred Filipino
